"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

yup, its 1:1 but the girls are hard to get (playing hard to get) at a speeddating event, most girls will have around 10 matches because every guys fills in "yes"... even the ugly girls are getting a bunch of telephone-numbers... it's a hard datinggame....

and another thing is" the girls got girlfriends who are also at the speeddating"....
so when you're not "in / there type".. you can skip 4/5 girls of the list...
so beware off the girlfriends..

i know..i am pretty good at the dating game.. but speeddating , you have to like it...but i score my dates at simple things like : stores, events,just by say "hi" to a girl at the busstop...

some tips:

- make a great entrance, be the man, talk to some girls
- flirt a lot with the girls..
- take the lead..... don't wait
- take telephonenumbers ( you're not allowed but break that rule:up: )
- After the speeddate, take some girls to another place, and make a party:)

just do this and you will have a great evening....::cool:
and play it cool, just be a man..

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I don't recommend drinking, it's up to you, but you'll have a bad breath and if you drink too much you will talk crap....i always stay at water /cola or something like that....why do you need drinking?(alcohol)

Other people make there own choice wheter they are drinking or not, but plz don't drink too much.

Speed dating was lame. The vast majority of girls were only OK in looks. Every single girl asked you the same exact qeustions.

What's your major/job. What do you do for fun.

At the end I wasn't matched with anybody. You only get the contact info if both you and the other person said yes. Since I didn't say yes to every girl, I don't know if the only reason I didn't get any matches because some of the girls I said no to, said yes to me, or if every girl there said no to me.

Ok,Maxtro..

Most times i steer the conversation in the beginning, just by asking different questions, and after a while ( 2 questions).. i let the girl do the talking...

you will see a different kind of attention .. because you're different than all other guys.. and be aware of non-verbal communication, like playing hair, touching etc.. after 3 minutes you can make you're decision "yes" or "no".

one tip:
If a girl you're talking to is looking away/side-glancing several times, it's probably a "no", she's observing another dude...
